The rally (11 AM) and march (12 noon) will take place on Monday, September 27th because it is the first day when both the Pennsylvania House and Senate will be back in session in Harrisburg. After we have seen a wave of exciting pro-life legislation across the states, now is a great time to continue the momentum and show our state lawmakers support for protecting the sanctity of life in Pennsylvania.

11 AM – Rally @ front steps of the PA State Capitol (intersection of 3rd St. and State St.) 

12 PM – March around PA State Capitol Building 

Additional Events – Morning Mass and Adoration @ St. Patrick’s Cathedral (Time TBD)

We encourage you to invite your state legislators and to visit their Capitol office before or after the rally and march.

The Rally will take place at 11 AM on the front steps of the State Capitol Building. The address is 501 N 3rd Street, Harrisburg, PA 17120. The front steps are on the corner of 3rd Street and State Street. 

Two confirmed speakers are Ryan Bomberger (The Radiance Foundation) and Jeanne Mancini (March for Life).

The full list of speakers for the rally is still being finalized. Both state and nationally known figures will be in attendance. We will update this page and the website as they are confirmed.

The March Route will encircle the Capitol Complex, covering N 3rd Street, North St, Commonwealth Avenue and Walnut Street. The length of the march route is approximately one mile. A full map of the route is coming soon!

All are welcome to attend and no advanced registration is required. The Pennsylvania March for Life is a public event which is open to all pro-life Pennsylvanians. While registration is not required, you can sign up HERE for updates to be delivered to your email.

We encourage you to be creative and bring your own signs! It is likely that many groups will have signs available as well. You can find additional sign ideas HERE.

We strongly encourage you to connect with your State Senator and State Representative before or after the rally and march. Each has an office in the Capitol that you can visit. You can call their office in advance to invite them to the rally and to schedule a time to visit. You may also drop by their offices without an appointment to let them know you were here. Note – you will go through security (metal detector) to enter the PA Capitol building.
